The buy-ins and dates above are compiled based on the complete Ring Event schedule in the PokerNews article. It's worth noting that while the PokerNews article describes Omaha as a €500 buy-in, the Ring Event table and complete schedule in the same article both indicate a **€300** buy-in. This article uses the €300 figure based on the complete schedule.
Colossus features seven starting groups, with low-entry tournaments spanning a week.
The €300 Colossus is one of the ring tournaments with the most rings in the starting group at this year's Paris leg.
The tournament will begin on Day 1A on September 3rd, followed by Day 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Day 1F and Day 1G will also be held on September 9th. All qualifiers will return for Final Day on September 10th.
For players looking to challenge for the WSOP Circuit ring with a lower entry price, the €300 Colossus offers a relatively ample window of opportunity.
Mystery Bounty has three Day 1s, and the champion will be decided on September 6th.
The €500 Mystery Bounty offers three starting groups.
Day 1A will take place at 2 PM on September 4th, Day 1B and Day 1C will be held at 1 PM and 8:30 PM on September 5th respectively, and the Final Day will begin at 1 PM on September 6th.
On the afternoon of the same day Mystery Bounty concludes, the €1,500 Main Event Day 1A will also begin, making September 6th the first major turning point in the entire series.
The €2,500 High Roller and €3,500 Super High Roller are designed to attract high rollers.
The second half of the series then transitioned into a high-stakes tournament.
The €2,500 High Roller event will begin on September 9th at 3 PM on Day 1, move into Day 2 on September 10th, and conclude on September 11th with the Final Day.
The highest buy-in, the €3,500 Super High Roller, will be placed in the final stage of the main event, starting Day 1 at 8 pm on September 13 and proceeding to Final Day at 1 pm on September 14.
This means that the final day of the series on September 14th will feature three Final Day events simultaneously: the Main Event, Deepstack, and Super High Roller, plus the €500 Bigstack and the online ring tournament finals, making the closing day schedule quite packed.
PMU Play is in charge of the online qualifiers, and there is also an online ring.
PMU Play is once again serving as the online partner for WSOP Circuit Paris.
Throughout the series, "Win Your Seat" satellite tournaments will be held, allowing players to compete for Main Event, Deepstack, High Roller, and Super High Roller slots with lower buy-ins.
The main event satellite tournaments mostly have a buy-in of €180, with an additional €300 Flash Satellite available on-site; the High Roller satellite tournament has a buy-in of €290, the Deepstack satellite tournament has a buy-in of €130, and the Super High Roller qualifier has a buy-in of €390.
The series of 13 rings also includes a **€250 WSOP Circuit Online**. This event, exclusively hosted by PMU Play, will have starter tables on September 6th, 13th, and 14th, with the final table taking place on September 14th at 9 PM.
Ladies and Seniors 50+ have their own ring competition
The Paris event also features a separate championship tournament for a specific group of players.
The €550 Seniors 50+ tournament will begin Day 1 at 2 PM on September 3rd, with the Final Day taking place at 1 PM on September 4th; the €500 Ladies tournament will start at 1 PM on September 7th, culminating in the final the following day. Both tournaments are official Ring Events, and the winners will receive a WSOP Circuit ring and a $5,000 WSOP Paradise package in addition to the prize money.
The €300 Omaha is also an official ring tournament, with Day 1 starting at 2 PM on September 7th and Final Day ending at 1:30 PM on September 8th.
All five fronts concluded simultaneously on September 14.
The final day of competition will be the busiest day of the Paris Grand Prix.
On September 14th at 1 PM, the €1,500 Main Event, €1,000 Deepstack, and €3,500 Super High Roller will all kick off the Final Day; the €500 Bigstack will start at 3 PM, and the Online Ring Event Day 1C and Final Day will follow in the evening.
From the Mini Main Event on September 1st to the Main Event champion on September 14th, the WSOP Circuit Paris offers 13 chances to compete for the ring over two weeks. Buy-ins range from a minimum of €250 to a maximum of €3,500, and with satellite tournaments and daily side events, the overall schedule caters to both general tournament players and high-stakes regulars.
The real focus will remain on the €1,500 Main Event. The five Day 1 starter groups will determine the final playoff lineup, while the biggest highlight of the entire series will be who lifts the Main Event ring and earns an additional WSOP Paradise entry package in Paris on September 14th.
